New build 1.5 k budget

Budget (including currency): 1500€

Country: Slovenia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: World of Warcraft, Streaming, Video Editing

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

So after looking at Benchmarks I decided to buy a Ryzen 5 5600x. I also plan on buying:

- either the RTX 3070 or the rumored 3060Ti (when it comes out) for my GPU choice

- Corsair Vengeance Pro 2x8GB 3200Mh C16 GBR Ram

- A Power supply with 80+ gold rating (Unsure of Wattage for now)

- 500gb M.2 SSD

- 2TB Seagate HDD

 

Since I dont know much about AMD Motherboards I'd like to ask for a recommendation (with Wi-fi). Also looking for Case and Cooling ideas (was thinking Phanteks P400A with a Noctua NH-D15 but not sure if it would fit).

An NH-D15 is pretty overkill for a 6 core CPU like the 5600X. Have a look at this:

PCPartPicker Part List
Type Item Price
CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor €299.89 @ Amazon Italia
CPU Cooler be quiet! Dark Rock Slim CPU Cooler €64.52 @ Amazon Italia
Motherboard ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming 4/ac ATX AM4 Motherboard €130.87 @ Amazon Italia
Memory Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory €61.99 @ Amazon Italia
Storage Kingston A2000 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive €105.89 @ Amazon Italia
Case Lian Li LANCOOL II-X ATX Mid Tower Case €123.00 @ Amazon Italia
Power Supply SeaSonic FOCUS 550 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply €83.05 @ Amazon Italia
  Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts  
  Total €869.21

I used italy cause it seemed to be the closest country, I hope the prices are somewhat relevant.

 

Alternative cooler choices:

Dark rock 4

Noctua NH-U14

 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Tnx for the Cooler suggestions 😊

 Hmm would you maybe have an alternative for the motherboard? From what I can see this one doesn't have Heatsinks.

You should get more than 3200 speed RAM for the new Ryzen. 3600 is enough, 4000 would be best. CL16 good for gaming.

You're also better off getting the new 6000 series AMD GPUs than the 3000 series Nvidia. But up to you.

Actaully 3600Mhz is the best. For the infinity fabric agrees the best with 3600Mhz, for some reason or another.

 

Edit: or is it 3800Mhz?

I edit my posts more often than not

Fair enough, thanks for info. But anyway, need more than 3200Mhz OP.
